If the job is not paid in full then any insurance or settlement from us will be void.
Our insurance policy means we are able to provide Goods in Transit and Public Liability insurance on your behalf. We state below our liability limitations:
1. To any goods left in wardrobes, drawers or any other furniture item or appliances.
2. To any goods in boxes, bags, packages, bundles, cases or other containers not both packed or unpacked by us unless there is evidence of external damage. This must be noted upon delivery.

Making a Claim (Goods in Transit)
